Basic PlanningAn OWA ceiling is installed using dry construction me-thods and is generally for interior use only. The basicprinciples of dry construction should be applied wheninstalling the ceilings. Where additional materials such astimber or gypsum are used, the guidelines on workingwith those products should also be observed.

Site conditionsBefore installing an OWA ceiling the room/site conditionsshould be assessed. The area should be weather tight(windows and doors in place) and have a stable, dry envi-ronment. The ceiling should only be installed after thewet trades, such as plaster- and screed-work have beencompleted and the environment is dry and stable.

Reference values for site environmentsGenerally the relative humidity should be < 70 % RH(reference temperature 25 °C), but it is recommended thatinstallation should take place at temperature and humiditylevels similar to those that will prevail during subsequentoccupation.

Standards for suspended ceilingsEN 13964 Suspended Ceilings – requirements and testmethods, has now been accepted in most European coun-tries as the prevailing standard and provides informationfor manufacturers,specifiers and users of suspendedceilings. Covering complete ceiling "Kits" and individualcomponents it also provides test methods, methods ofassessments and provisions for the evaluation for con-formity of the products to the requirements shown in thestandard.

QualityDimensions, material characteristics and colour arecovered by EN 13964

2. Basics

Technical guidelines

ColourAllowable tolerances in shade of colour OWA whiteThe difference in Δ E value within one production batchmay not exceed a value of 1.0. Where the materials usedare from more than one production batch the tolerancemay be greater than Δ E = 1.0. Greater variation may beexpected when installing materials purchased as individualorders over extended periods of time.

Fire OWAtecta® panels as building materialNote: The word "panel" is used as a generic term withinthis document to describe tiles, planks and linear panels.Where more clarity is required the definitions shown inEN 13964 will be used.

Reaction to Fire Classifications – EN 13501-1When tested to EN 13501-1, building materials are divided into a classification ranging from A1 to F with A1providing the best performance. As well as measuring amaterials contribution to fire this standard has intro-duced criteria measuring smoke generation (s) and production of burning droplets (d).

In most countries of the EC you will find tables that translatethe previous class according to local standard to the rele-vant EC class. For countries outside the EC, please checkyour local regulations or call your nearest OWA office.

The additional designations are:Smokes1, s2, s3 s1 = little or no smoke generation S2 = medium smoke generation S3 = heavy smoke generationBurning dropletsd0, d1, d2d0 = no droplets within 600 secondsd1 = droplet form within 600 seconds but do not burn for more

than 10 secondsd2 = Not as d0 or d1

Country Test standard ClassificationStandards: See table in installation guide for mineral wool tiles!

OWAtecta® ceiling systems fall into Class A1. Additionalelements such as non-woven backings, insulation pads,foam strips, etc. may affect the material fire classification.

Fire Resistance with OWAtecta®

When used in conjunction with OWAcoustic® panels fireresistance can be achieved using a number ofOWAtecta® ceiling systems. Independent fire resistantOWAtecta® ceiling systems are also available.The performances shown in our test reports are onlyvalid when OWAtecta® systems, panels and componentsare used and installed in accordance with the relevanttest report.

SoundOWAtecta® ceiling systems can fulfill a wide range offunctions relating to the control of sound.

Optimising room acousticsIn many rooms, the correct reverberation time T [s] isrequired for good comprehension of speech or apprecia-tion of music. Similarly in noise-intensive productionfacilities or workshops, the greatest possible sound levelreduction is required to make the environment morecomfortable.

Reverberation time regulation Tdesired [s]Noise level reduction Δ L [dB]

The four following standards contain the basics of mea-suring room acoustics. The requirements for specificapplications depend on local or country regulations; wesuggest you ask our local sales offices for guidance.

• EN ISO 354 Measurement of sound absorption in areverberation room

• EN ISO 140 Measurement of sound insulation in buil-dings and of building elements

• EN ISO 3382 Measurement of the reverberation timeof rooms ...

• EN ISO 10848 Laboratory measurement of the flank-ing transmission of airborne and impact sound bet-ween adjoining rooms

Optimising building acousticsOWAtecta® ceiling systems can be used to reduce andcontrol airborne sound generated from the cavity andadjacent rooms especially when combined with additionalinfill elements, such as OWAcoustic mineral wool panels.This combination is even more important when using per-forated metal panels.

In the modified form the ceiling can be used to:• enhance the airborne sound insulation Rw [dB] of solid

complete construction of soffit/floor plus suspendedceiling and it is the complete construction that is subjectto test. The total construction should prevent the passageof fire and provide effective insulation for as long aspossible. It is therefore important to use the complete,proven, ceiling system where performance is required.

Standards for the load-bearing building component: Soffit + Suspended Ceiling

Depending on their fire resistance duration, building com-ponents are divided into the following classes:

Classification Resistance to Fire Durationaccording to EN 13501-2 (minutes)REI 30 30REI 60 60REI 90 90REI 120 120REI 180 180

The fire resistance of structures in combination with sus-pended ceilings must be proven by fire tests accordingto European standards. Tests covering many typical con-structions have been successfully carried out with OWAceiling systems.

The OWA fire resistance test results are only valid if com-plete OWA ceiling systems are installed.

Fire resistance from above and belowWe have developed specialist ceiling systems that canbe used to provide fire resistance from above and belowachieving class EI 30 (a <–> b)

• improve sound insulation Dn,c,w [dB] between twoadjacent rooms with a common plenum

• reduce noises from the plenumAs installation conditions vary from site to site each pro-ject should be assessed on its own merits. Where theacoustic performance of a room is important it is recom-mended that a qualified acoustician be consulted.

If you are looking for additional information on buildingacoustic requirements, we recommend you consulteither ISO, EN or local standards and regulations: Ofcourse you can always contact your OWA sales office forinformation.

Planning before installationAn inspection of the building site to check local condi-tions, site measurement of the rooms and production ofan installation plan are important preliminary work steps.The ceiling layout, arrangement of lighting and similarmatters must be determined with the architect.

Structural physics basics:All planning relevant aspects, such as determining venti-lation cross-sections, air exchange rates, arrangementof vapour barriers, humidity, feasibility of a soffit in thecase of a ventilated ceiling with regard to the formationof any condensation in the building etc, must be de-termined by an expert planner (building physicist) and ifnecessary tested!

Requirements regarding building physics, fire protection,acoustics or other matters, which could arise amongother things from the relevant standards, have not beenconsidered in this installation brochure.

Perimeter panelsThe size of perimeter tiles will be dependant on theceiling layout and may be dictated by the positionof services, walls, partitions etc. as well as otheraesthetic considerations.

Generally perimeter tiles should be as close to a fullmodule size as possible, and preferably larger than halfa tile. In the example shown below we take room 3.0metres wide and install 625 x 625 mm tiles. The recom-mended layout uses three full tiles and two cut perimetertiles of 562,5 mm.

This is preferable to other example which uses four fulltiles and two cut perimeter tiles of 250 mm. The numberof tiles is the same but the ceiling would require an addi-

tional run of suspension profiles and be less aestheticallybalanced.

Example:

uneconomical tile distribution economical tile distribution

Effect of light or lighting on the suspended ceilingsFor architectural and optical reasons, light striking thesuspended ceiling at a shallow angle should be avoided.This refers both to light fittings and to glazed facadesthat extend up to the lower edge of the ceiling.

Unfavourable incident light can emphasise and exaggerateany minor difference in levels or pattern even when thislies within the tolerance range.The installer can contribute significantly to the appearanceof the ceiling by observing all of the manufacturer'srecommendations.

Tolerances: Mass produced ceilings are produced within tolerancesthat are deemed to be acceptable. These tolerances areshown in EN 13964 – The European standard for sus-pended ceilings.

Flatness:The manufacturing tolerances for thin gauge materialsare shown in table 4 of EN 13964.

"Squareness":The suspension system (main and cross sections) mustbe installed absolutely square. The permissible deviationdepends on the dimensions of the ceiling membranesused and their attachment. A practical method to checkthe squareness of the modules is regular checking of thediagonals during installation and/or the correct fitting ofthe ceiling panels. The permissible deviation depends onthe panel type, but even the slightest deviations fromsquareness may in practice lead to visible deformation ofthe panels.

Alignment of panels:Suspension system, panels and any service elementsincluded in the ceiling plane must be installed accuratelyand in accordance with the module specified. Care shouldbe taken to ensure that the alignments of profiles aremaintained especially at joints and intersections.

Cutting to size of perimeter panels:Normally the ceiling layout will be based on the centreline of the room bisecting, or running along the junctionof a panel. Unless otherwise agreed, whichever providesthe largest perimeter panel is normally used. Ideally theperimeter panel should be at least half the size of thepanel. When cut, installed and pushed over against thetee parallel with wall, at least 10 mm of the panel shouldbe resting on the perimeter trim.

Expansion and movement jointsIn small areas, temperature fluctuations due to solar gainor environmental variations rarely cause problems, how-ever in large areas or those where materials with varyingexpansion coefficients have been used expansion or con-traction may adversely affect the ceiling. In such casesspecial allowances should be made, especially at theperimeters.

Where building expansion and movement joints have beenincluded in the building design, these should be replicatedin the ceiling membrane or suspended ceiling.

Pressure and wind loadsClosed room and buildings with open facades are justtwo examples where wind loading and/or air pressurewithin a room can create additional loads on ceilings.Where such problems can be identified additional meas-ures must be taken to protect the stability and securityof the ceiling and components within the ceiling plane.

Load-bearing capacityAll ceiling systems (suspended ceiling kits) shown in thisguide have been tested for load-bearing capacity inaccordance with EN 13964.

As shown here Table 6 provides classifications of down-ward deflection with Class 1 requiring a maximum L/500deflection of 4 mm. When used in accordance with ourrecommendations OWAconstruct® profiles meet therequirements of Class 1. Where you require performancedata for other standards please contact us.

Class Maximum deflection in mm1 L/500 and no greater than 4 mm2 L/3003 No limit

L is the span between the suspension components or suspension points

Additional LoadsOWAconstruct® systems are designed to support theload created from the suspension system and ceilingpanels. Additional loads such as recessed and surfacemounted light fittings, air outlets, insulation quilt, curtainrails and partitions should be independently suspended.OWA may be able to provide effective methods of sup-porting some additional loads with minimum cost anddisruption.

No altered or adapted profiles (notching, drilling, etc.)should be used under load without prior consultation.

Corrosion protection of profiles,hangers and membrane materialsThe humidity level within a room not only affects themembrane material but may also have an effect on thesuspension system and associated components. Theseare generally manufactured from cold rolled steel andshould have the correct level of corrosion resistance tomatch the proposed installation environment.

Excerpt from EN 13964:The environmental conditions are defined in Table 7.

Table 7 – Classes of exposure

Class Condition

A Building components generally exposed to varying relative humidity up to 70 % and varying temperature up to 25 °C but without corrosive pollutants.

B Building components frequently exposed to varying relative humidity up to 90 % and varying temperature up to 30 °C but without corrosive pollutants.

C Building components exposed to an atmosphere with a level of humidity higher than 90 % and accompanied by a risk of condensation.

D More severe than the above.

In EN 13964 table 8 gives the minimum requirements forcorrosion protection according to the classes of Table 7.

OWAtecta®

Installation Guide


Standard OWAtecta® metal ceiling panels are made ofsheet steel and have a ZE 25/25 electro-galvanised orZE60/ZE60 hot dip galvanized surface. This corresponds to either corrosion protection class Aor B of Table 8.

OWAtecta® subconstruction components have a 7–10 umzinc coating on all sides and therefore meet the require-ments of both class A and Class B of the table 8. It isimportant to ensure that the corrosion resistant protectionis not damaged before or during installation or later whenin general use. Where components are cut or damagedthey must be treated to ensure the required level ofresistance is not compromised.

Contact corrosion:Corrosion due to the interaction of different materialsmust be prevented by introducing the correct protectivemeasures (as shown in EN ISO 129443-3 point 5.10).These should be identified prior to installation to preventfailure at a later date.

Hangers and fixings to soffit or roofHangers and fixings to the roof or soffit form the connec-tion between the structure and ceiling.

To comply with EN 13964 fixings should have EuropeanTechnical Approval (ETA) and should be installed in accor-dance with the manufacturers instructions and the limita-tion of use observed.

Transport and storageOWAtecta® products must always be stored in a way that ensures they are not exposed to moisture, dust ormechanical influences.

In addition, the following points must observed:• In the event of delivery on pallets, the panels must be

stored on the pallets until their installation. • Cartons must always be stored with the designated

side upwards. • No foreign material may be stored on the pallets or the

cartons. They may not be stepped on or used as aseat or ladder.

• When storing metal panels, care must be taken to en-sure that the panels are not damaged by the supportingsurface.

• Metal panel packages may not be stacked higher than2 m.

2. Basics


• Transport routes within the building site must be re-duced to a minimum.

• As far as possible central storage places must bearranged on each floor.

• In the event of maintenance work care must be takento ensure demounted ceiling panels are placed on oneof their long sides and carefully leant against a wall,with the finished surface facing the wall. Panels arenever to be stored on the decorative surface.

SafetyThin walled materials must be handled with care to avoidpersonal injury and product damage.

The installer must ensure that all associated risks areminimised and a full risk assessment carried out.

Cleaning and careThe standard finish for OWAtecta® ceiling panels is anelectrostatic polyester powder coating. Other types offinishes are available upon request.

Normally our products do not need cleaning unless theroom environment, climate control, ventilation or usemakes the ceilings visibly dirty. Where this happens thefollowing actions may be considered.

For the cleaning of visible surfaces we recommend the use of mild, lukewarm, soapy water (standard house-hold washing-up liquid) or diluted alcohol based windowcleaning agent using a clean soft-fibre cloth. Finally theceiling can be wiped over with a chamois leather. Any oilyor greasy residues can be removed with white spirit,however, this has to carefully applied to avoid any de-trimental effect on the sheen. In all cases we recom-mend that a small trial area be tested before cleaning thewhole ceiling.

Scouring agents are not permissible.

Painting the ceiling is another possibility but should becarried out by professional painters. Again we would recommend a trial area as de-greasing or sanding maybe required. Care should also be taken to ensure thereaction to fire classification is not affected.

Painting is not recommended for perforated panels asthe acoustic performance may be impaired.

Perimeter optionsThe following perimeter trims are available:

C-profile No. 57 (steel, visible side white) in combination with wall springNo. 5210

F-stepped perimeter trim No. 5620 F (aluminium, visible side powder-coatedwhite) in combination withwall spring No. 5220

F-perimeter trim No. 50 F(aluminium, visible side white) in combination with wall springNo. 5220

The distance between the topsideof the U profile or T profile and theunderside of the metal panel can-not be adjusted. This means thatthe perimeter trims have to befixed precisely.

Installation and removal of panelsThe panels for the clip-in systems are manufactured withpips on two parallel edges to provide a friction con-nection with the clip-in profiles. The panels are pushedinto the clip-in profiles until an audible click is heard.

The removal or swinging down of the panels is onlypossible using the special removal tool No. 99005. The tool is pushed into the unclamped panel joint – directly next to the clip-in profile. The spring hinge of the tool must be on the side of the panel to be removed. After the spring has clicked into place in the panel edge, the panel can be carefully withdrawn from the clip-in profile. The same procedure is to be applied to the other panel edges.

Installation Guide

Installation and removal of panelsThe panels for the clip-in systems are manufactured withpips on two parallel edges to provide a friction connec-tion with the clip-in profiles. The panels are pushed intothe clip-in profiles until an audible click is heard.

The removal or swinging down of the panels is onlypossible with the special removal tool No. 99005. The tool is pushed into the unclamped panel joint – directly next to the clip-in profile. The spring hinge of the tool must be on the side of the panel to be removed. After the spring has clicked into place in the panel edge, the panel can be carefully withdrawn from the clip-in profile. The same procedure is to be applied to the other panel edges.

Swinging down of panelsIndividual panels can be selected to swing down insystem S 31. For this, the hinge-down clip No. 86 E,must be clipped onto clip-in profile No. 87 E at the paneljoint. Both adjacent panels in the same row can then beswung down towards each other. If a hinge-down clip islikewise arranged on the next but one panel joint, an areathe size of two panels can be opened in the ceiling byswinging down.

The panels are provided with so-called hinge tabs at the clamped edges to ensure a neat panel joint. In the case of swing down panels, the hinge tabs in the region of the hinge-down clip must be bent.

In the case of linear panels, it is the other way round, i.e. if they are not to be swung down, the hinge tabs have tobe pressed inwards.System S 32 differs from S 31 only by every second paneljoint being equipped with a hinge-down clip. As a result, allpanels can be swung down. By gently pushing swung downpanels together the open space can be made even larger.

Wind safety/SecurityThe panels can be secured against displacement – e. g. inthe case of increased wind pressure – with the help ofsecurity-bracket No. 68 E. The security clip is inserted through the hole in the two adjacent panels and clipped over the clip-in profile. Two security clips are required per panel. Once secured the panels are not demountable.

The hinge down clip used in System S 32 can also be secured using clip No. 86E01. Tiles can still be swung down.

Perimeter optionsThe distance between the upper U profile edge and underside of the ceilings panels is 96 mm and cannot be adjusted. This means that the perimeter trims have to be fixed precisely.

The following perimeter trim versions are available:

C-perimeter trim No. 57(steel, visible side white) in combination with wall springNo. 5210

Stepped perimeter trim No. 5620 F(aluminium, visible side powder-coated white) in combination withwall spring No. 5220

F-perimeter trim No. 50 F (aluminium, visible side white) in combination with wall spring No. 5220

Panels which are supported by a perimeter trim cannotbe removed directly or swung down. Consequently, in thecase of smaller or narrow areas at least three panels perinstallation row are required so that initially the penulti-mate panel and then the wall panel can be demounted.

See OWAtecta® brochure 300 for additional perimetertrims and information on installation.

General notes:Clip-in panels with integrated lighting as a compact com-ponent are available for systems S 31 and S 32.

If the location point of the lighting to be installed is notknown, connector clip No. 12 E can be used as an alter-native to Hanger bracket No. 11E– provided the voidheight permits this.

The distance between the top edge of U profile No. 70 Eand the underside of the metal panels is then 146 mminstead of 96 mm. As a result most lighting can be insta-lled irrespective of the location of the U profiles.

Clean room ceilingWhen used in system S 31 plain un-perforated metalpanels can be used to satisfy most clean room require-ments (cf. OWA brochure No. 895 – ceilings for cleanrooms).

For this it is necessary

• to slide on at least on clamp No. 99007 per panel joint(see sketch)

• install wall spring clips on all perimeter panels usingone clip ≤ 30 cm ( minimum 1 per panel)

• to ensure where walls or partitions are uneven that thejunction between the wall and trim is sealed using asuitable sealant (e. g. acrylic).

Expansion joint

Main runners

No. 45

Main runner No. 45 is equipped at both ends with inte-grated splice connection that produce a high tensileconnection.

A hanger should always be positioned close to thejoint and joints should be staggered.

Expansion joint:

Every main runner is equipped with a standard expansion joint at one end, which serves to accommodate linear expansion in the event of fire.

The main runners must be so arranged that no expansionjoints are adjacent to each other. No load transfers (han-gers, light attachments …) are to be fitted to the expansi-on joint.

When setting up the first main runner row, it must be ensured that:– the distance to the wall corresponds to the length

(width) of the perimeter panel.– the distance of the slot for the insertion of the cross

tee to the wall corresponds to the width (length) of theperimeter panel.

The main runners can be installed almost without waste,i. e. most off-cuts can be used at the beginning of the next row of main runners, automatically creatingstaggered joints (see previous). The main runners are

supported by perimeter trim and should be cut short ofthe wall by 5 mm or 1/4 of the width of the perimetertrim, whichever is less.

Cross tees

Cross teeNo. 46 or No. 47

In conjunction with the main runner the cross tees areused to create the required module. They are equiped atboth ends with off-set hook connectors that are insertedinto the main runner slots.

Care must be taken to – insert the connectors in the correct side of the slot

(see diagram above).– ensure the cross tee expansion nose is not bent.– ensure the visible surfaces of the profiles are flat and

level.

Cross tees No. 46 or No. 47 are off-set to the left. Crosstees No. 47 and No. 47/15 G are slotted in the middlefor the insertion of additional cross tees.Perimeter cross tees are supported by the perime-ter trim and should be cut short of the wall by 5 mm or 1/4 of the width of the perimeter trim,whichever is less.

Additional hangers must be used to compensate for anyadditional loads placed on the cross tees.

Integrated lighting

OWA supplies compatible integrated lighting for thissystem (OWA Lex, OWA Terra, OWA Opta) in the dimen-sions 600 x 600 mm and 625 x 625 mm. This lightingcan be installed in place of a panel in the supportingstructure.

The lighting must be independently suspended or addi-tional hangers must be installed to compensate for theadditional loading where appropriate.

Down-lights must in general be suspended indepen-dently. The required panel cut-outs can be includedduring manufacturing provided they are ordered togetherwith the panels.

Electrical cables are not to be laid onto the ceiling or suspension system.

Coordination with the electrical planner or installeris important to enable the installation of additional orindependent suspension. Experience shows that theinstallation of hangers retrospectively is more difficult,more expensive and they are therefore more likely to beomitted leaving a potentially serious, concealed defect.

Perimeter options

Depending on the edge detail of the panels, various perimeter trims are available:

For edge 03 and edge 04

C-perimeter trim No. 57(steel, visible side white) in combi-nation with wall spring No. 5210

F-perimeter trim No. 50 F(aluminium, visible side white) in combination with wall spring No. 5220

F-stepped perimeter trim No. 5620 F(aluminium, visible side powder-coated white) in combination withwall spring No. 5220

For edge 07

F-stepped perimeter trim No. 5015 F(aluminium, visible side powder-coated white) in combination withwall spring No. 5220


Depending on panel-type and perimeter trim, the mainrunners and cross tees may have to be suspended nearthe walls when they run above the perimeter trim.

Please note that the carrier angles must be fixed exactlyat the required height. There is no additional adjustmentpossible. The clip-in profiles can be shifted +/- 10 mmhorizontally.Note: In some panels the tabs stamped into the ends ofthe panel’s long side have to be pressed inwards.

Installation and removal of panelsThe panels for the clip-in systems are manufactured withpips on two parallel edges to provide a friction connec-tion with the clip-in profiles. The panels are pushed intothe clip-in profiles until an audible click is heard.

The removal or swinging down of the panels is only pos-sible with a special tool, the removal tool No. 99005. The tool is pushed into the unclamped panel joint – directly next to the clip-in profile. The spring hinge of the tool must be on the side of the panel to be removed. After the spring has clicked into place in the panel edge, the panel can be carefully withdrawn from the clip-in profile. The same pro-cedure is to be applied to the other panel edges.

Swinging down of panelsIndividual panels or all of them can be selected to swingdown in system S 36. For this wire clip No. 69 E, that serves as hinge, must be introduced into the hole on thepanel’s long side and clipped onto the clip-in profile No. 87E (see illustration).

Up to three swing down panels can be pushed next toeach other on the clip-in profile to enlarge the openingarea. If the wire clips are arranged on the panel’s jointsopposite each other, a ceiling area twice as big can be opened thanks to the swing down action in oppositedirections.

Note: Panels cannot be removed when in the swung down positi-on. Where a panel is to be removed the wire clip No. 69 Emust be un-clipped before the the panel is moved

Sliding coupling Spring

Installation and removal of panelsThe panels for this system are provided with sliding coup-lings at the ends of one long side, which when extendedrest on the G-section. At the ends of the opposite longedges spring clips are mounted, which project throughslots on the short sides and rest on the G-section.

Installation procedure:• Check joint tape is on three panel sides• Retract sliding couplings• With the sliding coupling side up, push the panel diago-

nally up between the G-section. • Extend sliding coupling until they click into place and

rest them on the G section. Panel is now in the “swingdown” position.

• Carefully push the other edge of panel up until thespring clips into place (for ease of installation it maybe necessary to depress the springs).

Swing down/demount:

To swing down or demount the panel, removal tool No.99005 is required.

Insert removal tool No. 99005 between the G-section/panel and locate spring clip.

Slide the removal tool along either side of the panel untilthe spring clips have been compressed and the frontedge of the panel freed.

Gently pull the panel down into the the "swing down" posi-tion.

To remove completelyretract the slidingcouplings and removepanel.

Installing and removing panelsThe panel is pushed diagonally (with the longer anglededge upwards) between the Z-profiles. The other edge issuspended from the Z-profile and the angled edge placedon the adjacent Z-profile. The Z-profiles must be adjustedaccording to the panel width PLUS the sealing tape.

* If height at front side of the tile is 30 mm the above showndistances are valid.

Panels can be demounted by reversing the installationprocess.

Where increased upwards pressures are anticipated(such as wind pressure or for security reasons) it is pos-sible to secure the panels against lift using anti-lift clampNo. 67 E. These are mechanically fixed on site to theZ-profile using an M6 nut and bolt. One clamp is requiredper panel (on every Z-profile row).

Perimeter options The distance H between the top ofthe U-carrier edge and underside ofthe metal panel cannot be adjusted.This means that the perimeter trimsmust be fixed accurately.

The following perimeter trim versions are recommended:

C-perimeter trim No. 57(steel, visible side white) in combi-nation with wall spring No. 5210


(aluminium, visible side powder-coated white) in combination withwall spring No. 5220

See OWAtecta® brochure 300 for additional perimetertrims and information on installation.

Installation of lightingPlease note: the lights must be arranged betweenthe carrier sections No. 70 E.(The installation height of the lighting is normally greaterthan the distance between panel and carrier section.)

Electrical cables are not to be laid onto the ceiling or sus-pension system.Coordination with the electrical planner or installeris important to enable the installation of additional orindependent suspension. Experience shows that theinstallation of hangers retrospectively is more difficult,more expensive and they are therefore more likely to beomitted leaving a potentially serious, concealed defect.

Suspension

Minimum suspension height approx. 200 mm(for ease of installation 300 mm is recommended)

Note for Perfora: To ensure the required sound absorption performancelevels are achieved, Perfora panel must be installed withthe specified cavity depth.


The threaded rods must always be installed on the sameside of the U profile. The clamping bracket should alwaysbe installed with the locking screw positioned at the bot-tom.

Option 2:1 Rigid hanger lower part No. 1782 E2 Rigid hanger upper part No. 16/...3 Safety clip No. 66 E 4 Security pin No. 76

If the rigid hanger is just supporting the weight of the cei-ling only one security pin is is required. Where the ceilingmay be subject to additional weight / pressure loadingtwo pins must be used.

Option 3:1 Rigid hanger lower part No. 1782 E2 Suspension rod No. 14/.../1 or 14/.../23 Safety clip No. 66 E

Hanger rods must protrude through the adjustable bracket by at least 15 mm.


The safety clip is inserted with the longer leg upwards andcan be easily removed using finger pressure.

If using wall anchor No. 75 E with the U profile, the firsthanger adjacent to the perimeter wall should be posi-tioned ≤ half the distance of the normal hanger centres.Where no wall anchor is used the this distance should be≤ 300 mm from the end of the U profile.

Wall anchor

After the U profiles have been aligned in both directions,each U-carrier row is fixed to the wall using wall anchorNo. 75 E. This wall anchor can be fixed on the side (asshown) or underneath the U profile.

Note: The U profiles should be installed so that the slotsin the sides are in line with each other. To provide adegree of flexibility the slots are of different sizes andoffset.

Connection of U profiles

The U profiles are connected by means of splice No. 77E which also provides a small degree of dimensional tole-rance. The U profiles and splice bracket are joined to-gether using M6 bolts and safety clip No. 66 E. Joints inU profiles must be staggered.

Suspension and connectionof the linear C-bandraster

Linear C bandrasters are installed parallel at the speci-fied centres and suspended from the U profiles usinghanger No. 7910 E and security clip No. 66 E. Band-rasters are joined together using splice No. 8210 E and fixed to perimeter walls using using wall anchor No. 8110 E (wall anchors should not be screw fixed to bandraster).Bandraster joints must be staggered between rows.

Please note:The minimum clearance between linear C-band-raster and the wall is to be 10 mm. The maximumclearance depends on the type and width of theperimeter trim used.

Impact resistant sport panels in linear system

Linear carriers are joined using carrier splice No. 77/03B. The carriers should be pushed tightly together andjoints staggered to avoid deflection of the ceiling, Toensure there is no undue pressure on the joints/splice ahanger should be installed within 200 mm of carrierjunctions.

The linear panels are connected in a similar way to thecarriers.

An allowance for expansion should be made during theinstallation of both the carriers and panels.

After installation, the panels should be secured by bendingdown the locking tabs on the carriers (see illustration).

Perimeter optionsWhere there is no requirement to provide thermal orsound insulation the ceiling can be installed without pe-rimeter trims as a full module, "floating ceiling". If thepanels are cut to size along their length a standard orstepped F trim should be used with the panels clippeddown with spring clip No. 5220.

Any standard perimeter trims can used with full moduleceilings.

Installation of inspection- or access-trap

• Maximum carrier centres in the area of the access hatches is 1250 mm.

• Measure the access opening, subtract 6 mm from thepanel length dimension and cut to size.

• Place the U-form access hatch carrier pieces on thepanel carrier, align and clamp provisionally.

• Screw the hinges onto the access hatch.• Swing the access hatch into the ceiling opening and

screw the hinges to the U-form carrier, place the otherside of the access hatch on the tab of the weldedfastener.

• Clip on the two outer panels to the carrier rails of theaccess-trap.

• Line up the access trap in height and alignment withthe other panels and proceed in final attachment of theU-form carriers.

• Clip on the remaining panels to the access hatch.• Check function of the trap by opening and closing

several times – readjust if necessary.

Cutting Panels

General notes on the cutting of metal panelsThe recommended method of cutting metal panels is touse an electric nibbler. This greatly reduces the possibilityof a "wavy edge" that is generally produced when usinghand shears,saws and snips.

Where a nibbler is not available panels can be cut usinga fine toothed metal saw . To reduce deformation whencutting, the panel should be supported using a piece ofwood slightly deeper than the panel but of a similarwidth.

Cross-section

To allow easy installation and removal the wall absorbershould comprise at least three OWAtecta® panels.

Installation• Fix the bottom horizontal trim

to the wall (all trims are pre-punched).

• Fix the vertical trims in placeensuring a flush finish with thelower trim.

• Glue the sealing tape into theupper horizontal trim prior toinstallation.

• Fix the top horizontal trim bet-ween vertical trims ensuring aflush finish.

• Insert the OWAcoustic® panelsinto the OWAtecta® panels.

• Insert the OWAtecta® panel intothe upper horizontal trim liftinguntil it clears the lower trim (takecare not to dislodge tape).

• Lower the OWAtecta® panel gent-ly into the lower trim. The centrepanel is the last to be installed.

Note:The 15-mm holes in the trims have an acoustic functionand must not be blocked or concealed.

Special SizesWhere special length absorber units are used the verticaltrims should be cut 16 mm longer than the panels.
